7” ABBA: The Winner Takes It All / Elaine

Released on Polar label POS 1272 in 1980 in Finland.

FINNISH ABBA PRESSINGS: There is no print such as “made in Finland” etc. There are different fonts and positioning of the words on the label, depending on the title.  For example on “The Winner Takes It All”, the group name on the Finnish version is on the left side of the label, as the Swedish version has it in the middle.
